Andy Lee........Michael Katsidis anyone else feeling this?

[brucelee]

Yep but if you look at the prediction comp myself, VD and Saddo aside EVERYBODY else has picked Katsidis to win.

Indeed he's the bookies favourite as well and it seems the vast majority think he will beat Casamayor tomorrow.

So the comparison is valid.

The comparison is valid on some picks made by 3 people on a website.

You have been smoking more then usual today haven't you?
1st the Rep. thing now this.....

How is it not valid? Lee was a prospect having never fought a top 10 ranked opponent. He was in his first step up fight, a fight he was expected to win.

Katsidis is a WORLD CHAMPION currently holding the WBO belt fighting an older champion who the bookies and vast majority of boxing experts and fans believe to have faded and that Katsidis will bulldoze through him.

It's the SAME thing, check the betting if you don't believe me Kats is a clear favourite, not just on here but in the boxing world.

But they and you are all WRONG, for tomorrow he will be badly exposed as a limited fighter.


As for my rep complaints, just wait in time you will come to appreciate ole Bilbo and his visionary genuis.

This new system is flawed, it doesn't reward consistency for being a member of the board over a period of time. It merely rewards good standing over a month.

Under the old system if you, Wacko or myself left the board for a month we would still have a great reputation based on our longstanding committment to the board over several years. A reputation was earned slowly.

Under the new system if you ( I mean you Mick personally here the proud owner of the site's best rep) left the board entirely for a month to go around the world, you would come back and half a dozen members would now have a better reputation on the site than you.

If you left for two months you'd probably slip outside the top 10.

So you see no longer is your reputation something meaningful reflecting your contribution to the site over many years but rather a reflection of your contribution over the past 4 weeks.

It's the equivilent of boxing experts putting Kelly Pavlik above Marvin Hagler in the All time p4p rankings based on his two wins over Jermain Taylor.

If you can't grasp this yet you will in time.

I have realized this flaw just today when I saw Fantana's punching power and rep points. I compared it to Julius and he doesn't stand a chance against the young kid.

Exactly BruceLee! His 10000 odd previous posts and the reputation he had built just means nothing in this new system, he has a worse rep than a newbie.

The new system is just completely unfair.

[:::PSL:::]

I like the "earning dollar figure" idea, like I see in other forum (which I'm not member of).

[ono]

I don't rate the Kat that highly. Graham Earl almost knocked his arse out.

I think Kahn would beat on him quite easily tbh.

If he wins tonight....it's only becuase Casamayor has nothing left.

[OumaFan]

Katsidis really hasn't done much at all to get where he's at. I mean its not his fault, but he's one of those guys who just seemed to have a much easier route to stardom than most guys.

Anyways I've never rated him except for being exciting but Casamayor looked like such shit last time that I wouldn't be surprised if he won.

Shit, I forgot to do the prediction comp

Maybe if Fantana would get on his knees and suck some dick (wouldn't be surprised if he did) for rep like Julie he would have more
